I read a lot, I like to read. I mean I REALLY like to read. I get asked “how many books do you read a year?” That isn’t really a question I can answer. It is more a case of how many books do I read a week? Or even how many per day? For…

Progress 3
I haven’t gotten too much done, too busy at work 🙁 I like slow times, but busy is good for keeping my job and making tips 🙂 I’m also working on the book database while I’m at work
Pattern Keeper
I either try to look at my patterns on my phone, or print them out. I have not really gotten in the habit of using my phone, and it can be really hard to keep track of where I am in the pattern. My Aunt Sharon was using some kind of magnets to keep her…
Organizing My Floss
I have been trying to organize all of my craft supplies. I’m trying to get them accessible without taking up too much room. Most of my floss is organized, but I ran out of the paper bobbins I use. Much easier to find what I am looking for I use tackleboxes to organize the floss….
Clothespins?
I’ve been experimenting with ways to keep my excess material out of the way while I work on another section. When I was using a scroll frame, I just rolled it up, but using a hoop, I have been using clothespins. Not sure I like them, I get my thread caught on it while stitching,…
Progress
I’ve been making progress slowly, but surely
Sphere
Still working on the basics, but haven’t been doing much. Here is my first sphere, not too bad, hmmm? Except the other size didn’t quite work out the same. I need to figure out why they didn’t fit on both sides 🙁 Although, this could end up being a mace 🙂
Finished!!!
OK, I am finally finished with the first one. I’ve gotten all the pieces cut out for the next 2, and have the bottom half of the boxes made and am working on the lids. Lots of pictures of the final product, so it may take longer to load, sorry!! 🙁 That’s it!! Hope I…
New Project Started – Gingerbread Street
I need a break from the Counting Sets, so started this adorable Christmas Cross-Stitch. I love using frames, but they are too awkward and bulky for small living areas. I ordered a group of different sizes of hoops and am trying them out on this project. They won’t work for beading large projects, but should…
General
We’ve gotten some new people at work, and after Seaver and his servant, Dean, left me, no one else has left. My friend Bettina and her Bentley are planning to move to Italy!! Our old neighbors that moved away, but only 1/4 or 1/2 mile away are now moving to North Carolina. Justin, Kaile, Rocky…
